Mawra Hocane moves out of Islamabad apartment
Newlywed actor Mawra Hocane understands the bittersweet feelings attached to moving on, all too well. In a new Instagram post, she looked back on old memories as she packed up her belongings from her Islamabad apartment, bidding farewell to her old home with a carousel of photos and a heartfelt note. "Every time I bought a home, my mama said, 'May Allah grant you the chance to live here.' Today, I truly understood what that meant. How long one can live in one place is truly written. I was lucky enough to live here two years, on and off, before I got married," Mawra reflected. The Jafaa actor announced that she had finally relocated all her belongings from her old home to her new one, which took a long time and made her wistful. The photos that the Nauroz actor added to the carousel included a selfie flaunting the lounge, a mirror's peek into her bedroom, a glass-filtered view of the gallery, and a life-sized teddy bear. In some photos, her showpieces were loaded inside a vehicle, ready to be moved to her new home. "I absolutely love my husband's home, and I was thrilled to move into it. But no matter how seamless the process may be - which it was, thanks to my most incredible in-laws - I needed to take my time. I let the feeling sink in," she said. "It's never easy to leave your home and call a new place home." But Mawra also reassured her followers that she was getting used to the feeling. "Slowly but surely I'm feeling like it's my space, taking with me the things I've been too attached to from this house above," she said, referring to the intimate corners of her old home. "One piece at a time, I'm hijacking his entire space." In January, the actor gave a tour of her home on her YouTube channel M Live, going into details about how she furnished her apartment to transform it into the home of her dreams. Upon her fans' request, she shared a link to the vlog on Instagram Stories, writing, "Happy that I lived here for two years." Mawra tied the knot with Ameer Gilani earlier this year, sharing photos from each wedding event in February. Her posts accompanied the sweet hashtag #MawraAmeerHogayi, capturing wholesome moments with family members, including sister Urwa Hocane and brother-in-law Farhan Saeed. Around the same time, Mawra received the additional good news that her Bollywood debut from 2016, Sanam Teri Kasam, broke the record for the highest-grossing re-released film in India.

Realest wedding I've witnessed'
Congratulations are in order for the newlywed stars Mawra Hocane and Ameer Gilani, and for more reasons than one. Or so Anoushey Ashraf believes. Taking to Instagram Stories on Tuesday, the TV host shared just what makes this marriage so special. "Just had to say it. This has been the most wholesome and the realest wedding I've witnessed on the internet. With so many celebrity weddings happening over the years, the purity of heart and genuine joy of the couple (Mawra and Ameer) and their close ones have transcended the 'curated-ness' of weddings on social media. Congratulations to the bride and groom. May you always find comfort in each other!" Anoushey wrote. The VJ's comments are a nod to every close-knit aspect of the marital union, from the fashion choices to the execution of the events. With no prior news leading up to the big occasion, the two surprised netizens last Thursday by sharing photos from their Nikkah ceremony on social media. Mawra won hearts with her traditional ensemble, which was altered and modelled after the dupatta that originally belonged to her mother-in-law. In addition, the actor's jewellery set was also handed down by her great-mother-in-law, curating a look that paid respect to family heritage. The events themselves weren't short on sentimental value, as singer Farhan Saeed dedicated an emotional rukhsati melody to his sister-in-law. "Just stay a bit longer, Mawra," the song pleaded, causing the Jafaa actor to tear up. "I wasn't ready for this. We weren't ready for this! Love you so much, Farhan bhai," she wrote in an Instagram post shared on Tuesday. Even the fans agree that the festivities were no less than a tearjerker. "The cutest wedding ever!" one user wrote. "I've never seen such a humble and lovely family. May Allah bless you all," another commented. Anoushey wasn't the only celebrity to show love to Mawra. Another was Zhalay Sarhadi, who came to the Nauroz actor's defence on Instagram on Wednesday after a remark about the couple's age difference surfaced online. Although the comment only supported the four-year age gap between Mawra (thirty-two) and Ameer (twenty-eight), Zhalay had to point out some societal double standards. "Why is it so important to discuss the age difference when the woman is older as opposed to the man? This narrative is so skewed," she wrote.
